It's not how you start, it's how you finish. Somebody better tell that to Chicago and Baltimore. The Bears and Ravens are tumbling fast. In Chicago's case, the fall may stop just short of the playoffs. (AP Photos) Here are the complete Week 15 Raanan Rankings:

(Note: The Raanan Rankings are comprised of a total score for each team from five categories — offense, defense, special teams, quarterback and coaching. The scale for each category ranges from 1 (lowest) to 5 (highest). Ties for teams with identical points totals were broken based on number of wins, head to head matchups and quarterback ranking.)
